Little Wildflower {5 Reasons You Should Be A Wildflower + A Flower Crown}

Who else loves wildflowers?! Seems like I always go for the flowers that aren’t your ordinary, perfect, flawless flower. This flower crown made me feel so pretty and dainty! Totally channeled my inner wildflower, boho spirit! It also got me thinking about 5 reasons we should be wildflowers. I know you’re thinking, what in the world is this chick talking about? Trust me on this one. You’re probably more like a wildflower than you think! Here we go:

Stand Tall: In other words, be proud of yourself. There is no one just like you in this big ol’world. God carefully created you in his image {Genesis 1:27}. He gave each of us different abilities, talents, and spiritual gifts. It’s so hard in today’s society with all the Instagram, Facebook, + Twitter right at our fingertips not to compare yourself and covet someone else’s “perfect” life they’ve displayed. Just as you’re wishing you had that girl’s gorgeous long legs, someone else is wishing they had your bubbly personality, sense of style or your ability to break the ice in a crowded room. Always embrace yourself and each little thing that makes you unique. EVERYONE has flaws, but focus on all the good things about yourself and your life. Stand tall and have pride in you!

Stand Out: My mama always told me to be myself and don’t follow the crowd. The older I get, the more I realize exactly what she meant. I believe in standing up and standing out for what I believe in + what is right, no matter the circumstances. Whether you’re in a “field of roses” or not partaking in gossip at work, saying no to people who aren’t positive for your life, forgiving someone after they’ve hurt you, or encouraging others daily. Most of the time, the right thing is never the easy thing. However, you will never regret standing out for what you believe in!

Bloom: Always continue blooming. Never get so content and comfortable that you don’t continue to grow. Life has so much to offer us, gals. We should always be blooming in all aspects of our lives. There’s always room to grow in our walk with Christ {preaching to myself}, relationships with friends + family, work, finances, talents. Be sure to continue blooming and bettering yourself daily. Plus, try something new! Get out of your comfort zone. Take that vacation you’ve been looking into, try a new dish at your regular restaurant, pick up a new talent or hobby, and be open to blooming!

Look For The Sunshine: In order to prosper and grow a flower looks for the sunlight. We should always be searching for the “good.” Even on our darkest days, there’s always light peeking in + something to be thankful for. Strive to find the sweet, little things in everyday. When you filter out the bad and always focus on the good, you’re gonna shine, darling!

Let Your Roots Run Deep: Always remember where you came from, who helped you along the way and the lessons you’ve learned on your journey. The deeper your roots are the stronger you’ll be, you’ll have more confidence, and trust in yourself. Constantly remain grounded {in your faith, your marriage, your friendships, and your life}. “Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith – that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God” {Ephesians 3:17}. Be sure to let your roots run deep and always remain grounded in the love of Christ.

Little wildflower, if you remind yourself of these daily, you’re gonna bloom and be the most beautiful wildflower there ever was.
